President Obama doing what he does best, putting on a show for the media by signing some meaningless piece of paper.

Here is the list from the White House of President Obama's 23 executive orders or executive actions he will take on gun control. While these measures do not look all that harmful to the in wording below, remember, this is essentially a White House press release and what you read below is not the actual language of the executive orders the President will take. No one will get to see those until they are a done deal.

Check out the list below with our snide commentary on some in bold:

1. Issue a Presidential Memorandum to require federal agencies to make relevant data available to the federal background check system. What, that isn't available already?

2. Address unnecessary legal barriers, particularly relating to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, that may prevent states from making information available to the background check system.

3. Improve incentives for states to share information with the background check system. So you mean bribes and pork funded with taxpayer money?

4. Direct the Attorney General to review categories of individuals prohibited from having a gun to make sure dangerous people are not slipping through the cracks. Adam Lanza was a dangerous person and he found a way to get his mothers legal guns.

5. Propose rulemaking to give law enforcement the ability to run a full background check on an individual before returning a seized gun.

6. Publish a letter from ATF to federally licensed gun dealers providing guidance on how to run background checks for private sellers. Where do you think they could go with this? Will "provide guidance" turn into, "do what we say or else!"

7. Launch a national safe and responsible gun ownership campaign. Thanks guys, but there are lot of programs like this already around the country and the NRA is doing a fine job of it. BTW, criminals are not interested in responsible gun ownership.

8. Review safety standards for gun locks and gun safes (Consumer Product Safety Commission). Don't like the wording of this at all. When will the word "review" turn into some arbitrary draconian law?

9. Issue a Presidential Memorandum to require federal law enforcement to trace guns recovered in criminal investigations. Here again, don't law enforcement officials do this already?

10. Release a DOJ report analyzing information on lost and stolen guns and make it widely available to law enforcement. And what will you do when stolen guns are found in the commission of most gun crimes? Will you rescind the assault weapons ban? Probably not.

11. Nominate an ATF director. We're sure it will be a Socialist just like most of Obama's appointees.

12. Provide law enforcement, first responders, and school officials with proper training for active shooter situations. Stay out of the line of fire when nutcases are shooting at you.

13. Maximize enforcement efforts to prevent gun violence and prosecute gun crime. This is about as vague as where the President was really born and what he did in college. Hold on to your hat, folks, this could mean anything!

14. Issue a Presidential Memorandum directing the Centers for Disease Control to research the causes and prevention of gun violence. Gun crime is a disease? Since when?

15. Direct the Attorney General to issue a report on the availability and most effective use of new gun safety technologies and challenge the private sector to develop innovative technologies. How much more effective could a trigger lock and a locked gun cabinet be? Stupid idea.

16. Clarify that the Affordable Care Act does not prohibit doctors asking their patients about guns in their homes. It should because it really isn't any of their business.

17. Release a letter to health-care providers clarifying that no federal law prohibits them from reporting threats of violence to law-enforcement authorities.

18. Provide incentives for schools to hire school resource officers. Will liberals ask, "what if the resource officer is a whacked out child molester" like they did when the NRA suggested having armed guards in schools?

20. Release a letter to state health officials clarifying the scope of mental-health services that Medicaid plans must cover. It takes an executive frickin order to write a simple letter? This just shows how inefficient our government is.

23. Launch a nationalÂ dialogue led by Secretaries Sebelius and Duncan on mental health. And how much say will the pharmaceutical industries that rake in billions in profit from feeding kids psychotropic drugs have in this bogus "dialouge"?

#2 – Our medical records are already being shipped overseas for transcription and billing giving people in India (where they are not bound by US law to keep anything confidential) so HIPAA is pretty damn pointless already.

This situation is EXACTLY WHY the 2nd amendment was written the way it was. “A well-regulated (trained, my word) militia, necessary to defend a free (a individual, my word) state…the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. PERIOD! END OF DISCUSSION! NO COMPROMISE!
The founders did not trust a central government with power over the states. They were worried that what is happening now is EXACTLY what might happen. The first ten amendments were rights that would never be taken from the people.
Why do you think Obama said the Constitution had “negative” rights?? Huh? He was referring to those first ten amendments, and the fact that the government could not take those from you. It was a negative for the GOVERNMENT! DO YOU GET IT! He just hates that about the Constitution. Anyone who believes otherwise needs some smelling salts!

The Obama regime has showed us they are EXCELLENT at word play. Look how the healthcare bill changed AFTER it was passed before it went to the supreme court. NONE of this can be trusted. The one that scares me most is #13 “Maximize enforcement efforts to prevent gun violence” To me this translates to “Take any action necessary” to prevent gun violence. There is your “open door” to a nationwide gun ban folks.

is it just me or does this not sound stupid as all get out—-the main things that would help the problem we already have, why an executive order—-maybe he just likes to himself talk and sign that darn name of his. It also sounds like it is another way to get more on disability, the people aren’t carry enough of them now? OMG would someone please do something about this guy.

Rhonda….We already have plenty of gun laws. Obama knows this. That is not..not what this is about. We have a cabal of Communists (UN one-world gov/Agenda 21), Marxists (see Communists), Socialists (see Communists/Marxists), Radical Environmental Extremists groups, NGO’s (non-governmental org’s, who take your tax money and are not accountable to you), Black Nationalists’s who have a racial agenda (see Barbara Lee-Cuba visit/Haiti), and Internationalist Jews (see who makes up the Dem Party, and who is anti-gun), along with a media dominated by people like W Blitzer, A Mitchell, R Maddow, and that little worm, C Matthews.. all working to bring the “fundamental transformation” you-know-who promised over 4 years ago.

It always fascinates me that the people determining if someone is ‘mentally ill’ are already the definition of it. Look at the Loons in the government of this country. If they are not an example of mentally ill, I do not know what is. The same goes for the media, in general, of this nation, as well as the ‘education’ system that teaches people came from ‘nothing’ and are ‘evolving’ into something. Speaking of that stupid, mentally ill, notion, if evolution were true then why the fuss? People are just ‘evolving’, right? More like getting worse and worse, just as Jehovah foretold they would in His Word, which has never been wrong, and never will be! P.S.- I would rather have Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faith, Gentleness, and Self-Control than ‘survival of the (so called) fittest’ any day!

Would everyone who disagrees with these Communist-Democrat-Socialists stop saying that they are sorry! Think about what you are going to say. Know the facts, and SAY IT! Do you ever hear Barbara Boxer apologize? How about M Bloomberg? Did N Pelosi apologize for saying we first needed to pass the bill to see what was in it? How about if it said all people in Ca should be moved to Siberia? What would you have done?

“…where is Lee Harvey when you really need him?…” all of us in NorthCoast, Ohio have been saying the same thing… but none of them want to spend the rest of their lives in a federal prison playing pool and watching TV… cowards… the whole lot of them
